SPEAKERS
Jon Olinto, CEO & Co-Founder of One Mighty Mill
One Mighty Mill is an emerging food start-up that makes healthier and better tasting foods made from fresh-milled flour. With One Mighty Mill, Jon and his team are pioneering a resistance against America's industrialization and demonization of wheat and flour by rebuilding their own healthy food system. They start by sourcing organic wheat directly from farmers who promote the highest levels of sustainability and healthy soil. And they are building their own stone mills to produce living, nutritious flour. Fresh-milled flour is the cornerstone of One Mighty Mill’s line of bagels, breads, pretzels, and tortillas.
Prior to One Mighty Mill, Jon spent 14 years instigating the healthy fast-food movement in the United States. Alongside his childhood best friend, Jon co-founded B.GOOD, a healthy, fast-casual restaurant concept. Opening the first B.GOOD in Boston in 2004, the company grew to over 70 locations in the U.S., Canada and Europe. While building B.GOOOD, Jon's professional career was a complete entrepreneurial experience. He personally made and served thousands of burgers, salads and bowls, developed business plans, raised multiple rounds of capital, managed and operated restaurant and executive teams, and even restored a farm on an island in Boston Harbor (and brought the chickens over on the boat himself)!
